    I'm serious, look here. Right before Larry Holmes got KOed by Tyson he was trying to throw a punch back at Tyson to defend himself but his punch got caught in the ropes. It occurs at 36:30 right here.

    Roberto Duran vs Iran Barkley --

    Duran beating Barkley (at the age of 37) was one of Duran's greatest victory's.

    Duran was already a "legend" but I think this fight solidified it.

    It was a great fight... and not one sided by any means... which made Duran's victory, likely stemming from knocking Barkley down in the 11th round with a beautiful 5 punch combination, all the more exciting.

    Ali-Foreman from the 'I was there' and boxing perspective. Hatton-Mayweather for the atmosphere.

    I was ringside at Ali-Frazier one...The fight and the feeling in the arena was electrifying.

    The one I always wanted to be at was the Louis-Schmeling return bout. In N.Y., building up to the fight, it was the only topic of conversation in bars, on street corners and barber shops.

    SRL vs Duran I: two top 20 ATGs going at it around their prime, will probably never again happen in boxing
    JCC vs Taylor I: great dramatic ending, two champions in their prime fighting it out to settle who the best is,
